Top 15 Flea Markets in 2021

Let the fun begin! Flea markets and antique shows across the country are opening up, especially those held outdoors. Remember to wear good walking shoes, wear a hat against the sun, put on sunscreen, bring an umbrella just-in-case, and pack water and snacks. A good rule of thumb is to bring cash. It’s better for bargaining and you never know when WiFi for credit cards may fail. Better safe than sorry: Check websites before making plans to make sure the markets are not cancelled or postponed.
